Ovarian response to prostaglandin F2α in lactating dairy cows: A clinical update
Prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α) and its analogs are used to induce luteolysis in estrus synchronization programs to terminate unwanted pregnancies or to promote ovulation in certain cow subpopulations.

Postpartum uterine diseases in dairy cows : a review with emphasis on subclinical endometritis [PDF]
In this review, updated and precise definitions of the most common postpartum uterine diseases in dairy cows are provided. An aberrant uterine environment at inappropriate stages of the reproductive cycle inflicts damage to gametes and zygotes, impairing

PGF2alpha induced differential expression of genes involved in turnover of extracellular matrix in rat decidual cells [PDF]
In the rat, the decidual tissue is an important component for maternal recognition of pregnancy. Decidualization can be induced by either the implantation of the blastocyst or by artificial stimuli. The process of decidua formation or decidualization, is

Background and Purpose Cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) is a ubiquitous second messenger involved in human (patho‐)physiology. Phosphodiesterase 5 (PDE5) is a major cGMP hydrolyzing enzyme in many cell types including vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Several highly selective PDE5 inhibitors are in clinical use. However, there are currently no

This experiment aimed to evaluate the effect of PGF2α and time of injection on the quality and viability of Local ram sperm in Tris dilution at 50C storage temperature. The sperm was collected from four Local rams with artificial vagina, once a week for one month. At the first week, sperm were collected without PGF2α injection; 10 minute after PGF2α

PROSTAGLANDIN F2α SUPPLEMENTED SEMEN IMPROVES LANDRACE BOARS SPERM MOTILITY
This study investigated whether the sperm motility from Landrace boars improves when PGF2α (Dinolytic®; 5 mg PGF2α /ml) was added to diluted semen. Boars from one large production unit, were manually collected; semen was either enriched with PGF2α (group

Omega-3 fatty acid supplement use and oxidative stress levels in pregnancy.
Oxidative stress is a biological imbalance in reactive oxygen species and antioxidants. Increased oxidative stress during pregnancy has been associated with adverse birth outcomes. Omega-3 fatty acid (n-3 FA) supplementation may decrease oxidative stress;

HSP90 inhibitors potentiate PGF2α-induced IL-6 synthesis via p38 MAP kinase in osteoblasts. [PDF]
Heat shock protein 90 (HSP90) that is ubiquitously expressed in various tissues, is recognized to be a major molecular chaperone. We have previously reported that prostaglandin F2α (PGF2α), a potent bone remodeling mediator, stimulates the synthesis of ...
